That's what I was given and I didn't look at it carefully enough. My apologies. There was indeed a To: header, so it wasn't that. I got a copy of the actual email and was able to see all the headers, which I've pasted below (with the exception of two X-Microsoft-Antispam-xxx headers, which are fairly long). I've anonymized it similarly to the above as well as changing the IP address to 192.169.0.0, which is not what's really there. Note also that the mailto: links above (and below, if applicable) are not in the text I'm pasting but have been added somewhere along the line.

These are all good and should result in the subscription held for moderation as log as the lists Subscription Policy is Moderate (not Confirm, then Moderate).
What does the mail to the user, FIRSTLAST@SCHOOL.edu, say? I.e., if the subscription is waiting confirmation there should be a mail to the user with Subject: Your confirmation is needed to join the MAILINGLIST mailing list and body that begins with
Email Address Registration Confirmation
Hello, this is the GNU Mailman server at DOMAIN.org.
Does the user get that email, a different email (if so, what) or no email.
Is there anything systematically different about the addresses you are subscribing this way and the ones who subscribe with their own email?
